jump 4 was a monster and he marked the sand with the back of his head.

That last (foul) jump from Edwards was huge. I wonder if it would have won him the gold…

Kenny Harrison's high school triple jump was 52 feet 4.5 in. Bo Jackson's high school triple jump was 48ft 8 in. Kenny went to specialize in track in college while Bo became Bo in Football and Baseball in college. Imagine if he had ever specialized or practiced.

Hey Jim. Since you're the track and field video king of TH-cam, I have a question for you: Do you have any of the sprint rounds/finals from the 2004 US Olympic Trials? Particularly the 100 and 200 men? If so, can you post some of them? Thanks man. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. -Adam

The other guys probably don't know physics to improve their mechanics.
